Overview

Symmastia is a rare congenital anomaly in which soft tissue connects, or webs, both breasts across the midline anterior to the sternum. It can be surgically corrected by a plastic surgeon.

The term is also very commonly used in plastic surgery to describe a similar appearance that occurs undesirably following breast augmentation.
